Hi Enrico,

An excellent suggestion, I’ll give it a go.

Thanks,

Paul.

Unfortunately, that is not possible at the moment. I'll look into making
this more flexible.

Hi Paul,

you can "bind" your software on port 8080 to a specific address (on loopback or ethX interface) and not to ANY (0.0.0.0).

On my software probe:

$ netstat -ltpn | grep 8080
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:8080<http://127.0.0.1:8080>          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      2456/ssh
tcp6       0      0 ::1:8080                :::*                    LISTEN      2456/ssh
$ nc -l 127.0.0.1 8080
nc: Address already in use
$ nc -l 127.0.0.2 8080
^C
$

ssh just binds to 127.0.0.1 and ::1
